Answer:

B. People face trade-offs.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

A. Larry can use time most efficiently by spending the same amounts of time on swimming, biking, and running.

B. People face trade-offs.

C. People usually exploit opportunities to make themselves better off.

D. Larry has an incentive to spend more time on swimming than on biking or running.

The basic principle that these choices illustrate is that people face trade-offs when trying to decide what the right course of action is at any particular moment. In this example, Larry has three tasks that he needs to complete: swimming, biking and running. However, dedicating time to one of this leads to less time for the other ones. Therefore, Larry faces a trade-off. This concept is closely related to the idea of opportunity costs.

Why did Congress add the Bill of Rights
serg [7]

Answer:

Federalists argued that the Constitution did not need a bill of rights, because the people and the states kept any powers not given to the federal government. Anti-Federalists held that a bill of rights was necessary to safeguard individual liberty.

The amendments, known as the Bill of Rights, were designed to protect the basic rights of U.S. citizens, guaranteeing the freedom of speech, press, assembly, and exercise of religion; the right to fair legal procedure and to bear arms; and that powers not delegated to the federal government were reserved for the states.

Hope this helps :)

Stells [14]

Answer:

- The way they choose their homes were different.

- Their main food sources are different.

Explanation:

During the stone age, humans were nomadic. In order to fulfill their basic needs they have to engaged in hunting & gathering process to obtain foods and shelter from their environment. If  the food in a certain area became too scarce, they will move and settle to another area.

During the stone age, animals meat and wild fruits were humans' main food source. As we entered the agricultural age, we started to developed food sources that were easy to produced and provide us with high calories. This is when we slowly transitioned into mostly consuming crops such as Potatoes, rice, and corn.
